Aside from all of the above problems (which sums up many of my personal issues with 3e archetypes), I think that the crime-fighter suffers from an attempt to compress way too many ideas in a small space, becoming, basically, a one-size-fits-none container for all characters outside of the other arch...

Nice Cosmic entities! I love the Phoenix Force and the pics you used. ? Shouldn't the Phoenix Force itself have it's powers at level 30? I mean, isn't Xavier and Jean in 2019 at 16-18 with their powers (TP, TK)? While hosting the PF like in Morrison's run, Jean would be above 18 with her powers, ma...

Back in the day I had a couple of issues of Mystic and Sojourn, but they never worked for me. There were a lot of good ideas, but the overall theme of the sigil seemed kind of random and tacked on at times.

I might be alone here, but I was never really taken with Gaiman's version of Death. There's an int...

Hopefully, they won't destroy Spider-Gwen, like they did with Captain Marvel, but I have no real hopes anymore. I love ho...

In one of my attempts to a merged DC/Marvel continuity, I ended up linking the Watchers to the Guardians of Oa, pretty much establishing them as the "Internal Affairs" department of the Green Lanterns Corps.

Considering that Shooter's (a person I think was a great editor, but not much of a writer) own baby was Starbrand , which was literally the same overarching plot of a common person becoming some kind of omnipotent entity, I wouldn't be surprised if Korvac was the prototype. Given Shooter also wrote...
